Footy-ghana.com can exclusively reveal that the Black Stars technical team is seriously considering handing recalls to former team captain John Mensah and goalkeeper Richard Kingson.

According to our unimpeachable sources, Mensah, who is currently without a club, is being closely monitored by the Kwasi Appiah-led technical team and is seen as a short term solution to problems in central defence.

Footy-ghana.com also understands that Kingson is under consideration due to concerns over Fatau Dauda’s relative inactivity at club level and the fact that Kingson himself has returned to competitive club action after 18 months out.

Footy-ghana.com has learn that both players, who represented Ghana at the 2006 and 2010 World Cups, are very close to securing places in Ghana’s squad for the final World Cup qualifier against the Pharaohs of Egypt.
